PC Moment: The altruistic nature of the fraternity of current and former Houston Texans was beautifully displayed when a huddle of the NFL heavyweights gathered at Ecclesia to raise $360,000 for Project 88, founded by Ericka and Garrett Graham, former Texans tight end.

Dinner from Monarch Hospitality and dancing to the sounds of DJ Kenny Klips rounded out the evening.
